Merchant's description
La Gravette is the second wine of Vieux Château Certan and named after a vineyard parcel between Certan and Le Pin. A blend of 87% Merlot and 13% Cabernet Franc, the 2015 vintage has just entered its drinking window. Expect a very fragrant expression, suggesting rose petals, red fruits and herbs. The tannins are well integrated and the finish is slightly sweet.
